Emmy9ite: my boss, its been a while, how is medical school?

Yeah. Really been a while- how have you been doing? . Med sch has always been med sch. Does it ever change?? In the 60s they said the same story. Same old stress and volumes to stuff inside this head. God dey.

Mr Laugsta, glad to see you're almost done with med school. uhmm.... i'm doing my s1 postings right now. My current unit is Cardiothoracic Surgery. I'm 1week old in the unit already and we coiuldnt do much last week because of the strike. So basically last weeks' rounds ws for stuff. Boring.
So I wanna ask- what are common conditions that normally present in cardiothoracic surgery!??-from the med student point of view. They say common things occur commonly. At least I've seen lung cancer, pleural effusion and TB. Any additions??

Kadata: Best moment was when the HOD of Physiology department told me that they'd take me on distinction viva during Part1 MBBS Exam. I was their only candidate. No one has ever got a Distinction in Physio before. During the viva, I answered all the questions correctly. The UNIBEN prof was obviously impressed.
Worst moment was when the Part 1 result was pasted finally. I only saw 'PASS' . I wanted to die. I didnt know what happpened. Well, shit happens in med school. Seriously, I nearly cried.

Dr.Gboy:

Starboi10: I hope to meet you soon. I entered for medicine diploma and you sound like a very serious student

Lol. the dude has little choice. he's a medic so he's just got to be serious

Lagusta: Bros, if u want to be a doctor, you have to bow to your elders in the line....

A med student must bow to a house officer, a house officer to a registrar, a registrar to a senior registrar, and a senior registrar to a consultant! It is even stated in the hippocratic oath....

Yes ,we know. No need overstating the obvious.

Lagusta: Dr. Young, I also perfectly understand what you are saying, but if I may ask, which level are you

Medics and the hierarchy ish. I See it never ends

Shakidor: Yea, two times!

Two times?? Well- you're okay with your decisions. Provided its what you want. Getting into med school is a very competitive procedure - I just hope when you apply the odds will be in ur favour. For the physiotherapy stuff- you have Google with you.

Lagusta: Got anything to say?

*smiles*

A medic will always have something to say - if not to ask. I like the idea behind creating a thread like this for medical students across Nigeria to share ideas, experiences, secrets and thoughts about the future. Medical schooling in Nigeria is quite challenging - from the entry to the "remaining" to the graduating sef - all na fight. Let's hope the thread doesn't follow the pathway of its predecessors by being lost among the admission jumble around this section.

*peeps inside*

Hmmm- this is when it gets complicated. Does unfaithfulness in Nigerian marriages ever get solved??

ishmael: Read hard and play less. You must be good in mathematics, statistics, computing and writing skills to become a competent statistician.

All said

Emmy9ite: i have registered! I didnt see any course in BMS but i just picked microbiology. I am still praying i get med/surg!

That's a good plan you have there. Microbiology gets you in- you take one more chance and gbam! There it is . Ïts gonna really really work - don't lose the ginger for the medicine stuff.

Emmy9ite: Bro i will go for physiology...wht about u?

You've supplemented already??

Emmy9ite: ok.....do u have kadata's phone number,really need to seek his advice!

Been away for a while. Medical school ish- bought the supplementary form yet??
